I've been in modern buildings with three cars per shaft. You enter the floor you are going to and it sends you to a specific car, say people going to the top  20 floors take car A, and people going to the 20 floors below go to car B, then there is an inverted Y junction and both ride up on the same shaft, with car A first and car B below it.

I've also taken elevators where you move horizontally at a high speed and reconnect to an upwards shaft.
